Restriction for Internet on Nagios XI server

Post by ar0431 »

Hi,
We want to restrict internet on our NagiosXI Server. But we want to open certain IPs only for nagios sites for "updates". Can you please give us IPs of nagios so that we can open only for nagios on firewall.

Regards,
Syed Rizvi

Hi Syed,

The Nagios XI server must be able to reach api.nagios.com to check licenses and updates. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Code: Select all

[root@localhost ~]# nslookup api.nagios.com
api.nagios.com  canonical name = vs1.nagios.com.
Name:   vs1.nagios.com
Address: 50.116.21.7

It looks like api.nagios.com have multiple IP Addresses. Can you please give me range of IP addresses for nagios.

$ nslookup api.nagios.com
Server: 10.150.96.13
Address: 10.150.96.13#53

Non-authoritative answer:
api.nagios.com canonical name = vs1.nagios.com.
Name: vs1.nagios.com
Address: 50.116.21.73
Name: vs1.nagios.com
Address: 2600:3c00::f03c:91ff:feae:f698
